Guijuelo vs Villarreal Betting Tips and Prediction 20 Dec 2022. After a one-month break, Villarreal will start its 2022–23 campaign on Tuesday when they play fourth-tier Guijuelo in the second round of the Copa Del Rey. The Yellow Submarine participated in four friendlies, winning three of them, in an effort to stay in shape during the 2022 FIFA World Cup-imposed sabbatical.
Following a 2-1 setback to Fenerbahce, victories over Galatasaray (4-3), Aston Villa (1-0), and Napoli (3-2) were achieved. Villarreal has had a dismal season in La Liga, winning just six of their first 14 games and currently sitting in the ninth position with 21 points. After Unai Emery left the team in October, things reached a new low as the Castellon team lost four of their first five games without him.
Villarreal was able to reclaim some normality, though, by finishing the first half of the Copa Del Rey with a string of victories, including a remarkable 9-0 thrashing of Santa Amalia. While all is going on, Guijuelo is aiming for another surprise after defeating third-tier Deportivo la Coruna 2-0 in the previous round. The Salamanca team has 30 points after 15 games, and nine victories, and is currently ranked second in Group A of the Segunda Federación.
Guijuelo vs Villarreal – Important Points:
For the first time ever, Guijuelo and Villarreal cross paths. Villarreal has won their previous two official games, defeating Santa Amalia 9-0 and Espanyol 1-0, both while maintaining a clean sheet. Their 9-0 victory over Santa Amalia surpassed their 8-0 thrashing of Victoria in the first round of the Copa Del Rey last year as their greatest victory across all competitions. After being eliminated from the cup in the second round in the 2012–13 season, Villarreal is attempting to advance to the round of 32 for the tenth consecutive season.
Guijuelo vs Villarreal – The Prediction:
Guijuelo is attempting to outshine Villarreal here, but Villarreal is just superior in strength and has enough squad depth for Quique Setien to pitch a depleted lineup and still win. The Yellow Submarine should win the cup once more in the end.
Guijuelo 0-4 Villarreal
Guijuelo vs Villarreal – The Tip:
